Ask what Korea is talking about.

An appeals court on Friday acquitted Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon of political funding charges linked to opinion polls conducted ahead of his 2021 election, overturning a lower court conviction that had threatened his tenure. The Seoul High Court ruled the allegations did not constitute a violation of the Political Funds Act, according to Yonhap and KBS World. The main opposition People Power Party welcomed the decision, and the acquittal is seen as reviving Oh's prospects for a potential presidential run, easing a threat that had overshadowed his fifth term as mayor.
